Stay with me

The reveal

So then they were all walking and panting and all of sudden.
"Hey, Lanes" then suddenly Gordon knew she wasn't in the mood as she gave him an evil stare. "Hey um there's a lake and we can't get across"
Then Chris got a stick and measured the lake "Hey it's not that deep, we can walk across." But what they didn't know was that the edge was shallow but the rest of the water was deep, Melainie didn't get in the water. "Hey where you going Melainie?"
"Looking for a bridge" but they guys didn't get out and look with her, finally she found a bridge and over on the other side Alexander was pushing under owen. "C'mon owen act your age!"
"This is my age, i'm in the prime of my youth and i'll only be young once!"
"YEAH BUT YOU'RE ALL GONNA BE STUPID FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIVES!" Melainie yelled across the lake just finishing her walk over the bridge. "Hey Chris, there's something on your neck!"
"Haha, very funny!"
"No, Chris we're not jokin' this time man"
Then suddenly "LEECHES!" all the boys were ripping off tops getting the leeches of, Melainie standing away (not looking) Gordon pulled the last leech off him and this one was the biggest one there was blood everywhere on his arm, he fainted. "Geez, I never met somebody who fainted before" Owen said.
"Maybe you made a mistake when you looked at your face.
So off they went then Alexander started to pick a fight with Owen while they were walking and then the talking grew louder "WELL, I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN!"
"C'MON IT'S NOT THAT HARD"
"STOP IT!!!" Melainie screamed. Now what the gang didn't know (including her brother) was that Melainie suffered from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and it all started when her parents were fighting and it scared her so much that whenever people are yelling she can't take it, but it was hard to keep it down with Alexander and Owen fighting so much. "Hey, it's getting dark, Do you wanna set up?"
"Yeah"
So they all set up their sleeping bags and set up a fire. Now they were all asleep, then there was a noise, it went once awoo and then twice awoo "Holy what was that?!"
" I don't know!"
"I think we should keep guard"
"I'll take first watch, hand me the pistol"
so Owen went and stood by a tree "It's 11:34 pm and Owen Turner is on watch for a ghost"
"Oh, shut up!"
Then Alexander took watch scared of might be behind him, then Chris took watch he was just chilling, when he heard noises he went to go see what it was and he found it was his sister jerking her head and making scared noises then Melainie woke up "AGHHHH!"
"What's wrong, doesn't matter go back to sleep"
Then chris got up and walked back to the tree. "Hey Chris" a small and quiet "um, i need to tell you something..."
"Okay, shoot"
"Then hand me the pistol"
"Haha"
"Okay, um I..I..I" She was scared.
"Well spit it out"
"I have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder" She cried on the verge of tears.
"How long have you known?"
"Since i was 12"
"And it's taken you 2 years to tell me?"
"I didn't know what to say..."
"Who else knows?"
"No one"
"Right" Then Melainie started to cry.
"It's gonna be alright Lanes"
"You know, Chris you're not so bad!"
"Wow"
Then they went to sleep and it was soon morning
